Comments in the FCC’s sixth further notice of proposed rulemaking (FNPRM) for the 4.9 GHz band are due July 6, and reply comments are due Aug. 6. The sixth FNPRM was published in the Federal Register May 7.

The FCC also announced that WP Docket No. 07-100 is the consolidated docket number for all further filings, communications and proceedings involving the 4.9 GHz band, as described in Part 90 of the FCC rules. WP Docket No. 07-100, used for 4.9 GHz band matters, inherits all open issues related to the 4.9 GHz band from PS Docket No. 06-229 and PS Docket No. 06-150.

All parties bringing matters before the commission that pertain to the 4.9 GHz band, including comments and reply comments, may file only under WP Docket No. 07-100 and need not file under PS Docket No. 06-229 and WT Docket No. 06-150. The public can access previously filed 4.9 GHz band matters under PS Docket No. 06-229 and WT Docket No. 06-150.

Please note that PS Docket No. 06-229 and WT Docket No. 06-150 remain open. Filings that do not relate to the 4.9 GHz band, but which are pertinent to other issues raised in those dockets, should continue to be filed in PS Docket No. 06-229 and/or WT Docket No. 06-150 as appropriate.
